One type of game that I find entertaining is when you are enjoying the game but mess up, you must have to face a consiquence, like an obsitcal, or a question, or something similar as punishment.  The questions could be trivia, which is also fun to me.  Say you are doing a game on social studies, there could be history questions and you can only miss so many of the questions before you have to start over.  It is a different type of game and it would still be educational.  Those are interesting to me.

     Trivia games are fun.  They can be about current events that are in the news and such things.  They can be of different events going on in the world today, but you are still learning at the same time, but coud have fun while you are doing it. You could only miss so many questions, because it wouldn't be fair to have a never ending game.  If you couldn't beat the game it would get boring in trying to beat it.  The questions would be related to recent headlines in the news.  So not only would you be learning about current events, but you would be having fun doing so.

     In some games you could make it to where you have to select the correct term in the English language.  If you dont chose the correct one you will have to run an obstical course in the game or something similar to that.  It would make learning a little funner than it really is.  It would maby distract you from the fact that you are learning.  It would be have to be pretty, and entertainig.  If it is just black and white then it would get very boring, and not very many people would try it.

     Another type of game is like a drag and drop game.  You drag the correct term for the math, Enlgish, or any other type of learning topic you chose.  The rules are you can only miss so many questions before you are out of the game.  You could have to make the statement true, or add a word in the sentence, or anything to make the facts true.  Most could stick in your head.  That is one type of game that can be educational.  There are many types of games that you can learn from.  There are all different types and anyone can come up with a fun way to learn.

     There are many different types of games, like drag and drop, obsticle games, and such that can help you learn whatever topic you chose.  Like current events, math problems, English, grammer, science, nutrtion, and many more that can still be helpful to everyone.  You could have random trivia facts, and if they are very interesting, the player would remeber the facts, and have gained education while playing a game.  You can have fun while you learn.

  1. I like your ideas. Give some more details about each game. List 5 different games topics, and and the link between the social skill and the STEM skill. You would teach.
